Habitat for Humanity Mentor

Sign Up

Habitat for Humanity is looking for Mentors to walk beside families for 9 months as their new home is being built. Mentors attend training, monthly Homeowner Services Committee meetings and regularly check in with the Habitat family. If you have the gift of Mercy and Wisdom, this serving opportunity may be for you!

Mentorship means people who:  

  • Care about families and who are patient, instructive, compassionate and responsible
  • Can commit to about 12 months to walk with the family
  • Agree to attend one mentor training session, and a monthly zoom meeting with the family services committee meeting to update the committee on their family.

Mentors agree to: (these are just basics, more information is provided)

  • Attend a one-hour training session at their convenience and receive a training manual
  • Attend Homeowner Services committee meeting/Zoom once a month to update on progress
  • Be the family first point of contact for West Orange Habitat following guidelines
  • Not to provide any monetary or in kind gifts to family
  • Regularly connect with the family by phone, in person, text, email for about 9 months
  • Pray for and positively impact the family with joy!
  • Walk the journey with the family to answer questions and ensure they complete:
    200 hours of sweat equity per adult
  • Financial Literacy classes (we host/provide these for families only/mentors are able to attend)
  • Saving for a down payment
  • Maintain good credit – again, mentor training is provided for this).

For more information, contact:

Chair: Gayle Fleming, Dir. of Homeowner Services

Meetings: First Tuesday of each month at  5:30 PM
